Just as visionary and enigmatic as his feature films, this program of shorts includes a modern, comic-book style retelling of ancient myth, a vérité look at the life and times of a group of four year olds, and a young boy discovering life, death, and love in a fish market.

In this masterful embodiment of Pálfi’s fluidity of vision, a woman jumps from the roof of her Budapest apartment block and plunges into seven different microcosms of contemporary Hungarian society.

Based on Hungarian novel Our Street by Sándor Tar, Pálfi’s most recent feature centers on a benevolent man trying to survive in his post-apocalyptic, war-torn village.
